Now in its second edition! Tune up, tone up and rev up with an inspired but easy-to-follow twelve-week healthy eating plan that unlocks the remarkable power of superfoods, and high-intensity exercises, for all fitness levels. Bewildered by Açai berries and confused by kefir? The growing trend for embracing the nutritional force of so-called superfoods has left many of us unsure where to start -and what to eat.

Whether you’re looking to lose weight or embrace a healthier lifestyle, smart nutrition and increased levels of activity are essential to reach long-term goals and experience the greatest health benefits. Blending the very latest scientific and nutritional research with delicious eating and work out plans and sumptuous photography, The Anti Ageing Food and Fitness Plan by Ideal World TV’s resident Health and Fitness expert, Rick Hay, targets ageing and fitness at a cellular level to promote a sustainable diet and general wellbeing that will help anyone to change their lives for the better.

Rick’s twelve-week plan recommends mouth-watering, easy-to-prepare and nutrient-dense meals and snacks that deliver the required vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and phytonutrients to optimise digestive function, and pairs these recipes perfectly with a work out routine consisting of High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) to burn calories and gentler stretching practices to help relax muscles. The first four weeks have been designed to recalibrate the body using a diet primarily consisting of plant-based proteins.

This Tune Up phase is followed by Rev Up, which takes readers up to week eight, introducing thermogenic spices to boost metabolism. The final four Tone Up weeks primarily focus on weight management and increasing strength by ramping up exercise. Also included are Hay’s tips and tricks for the best superfood and nutrient combinations to help maintain results once the programme has been completed.

The Anti Ageing Food and Fitness Plan is not purely about nutrient density, losing weight and getting ripped; it’s a sustainable philosophy which allows readers to revitalise their minds and bodies, with a food and fitness plan designed to maximise health and wellbeing. This accessible and effective programme helps to demystify the superfood arena, enabling us all to eat and live well by making every delicious and nutritious mouthful count.

My Thoughts:

I found this book informative and well written. It has different recipes that you can try and shows you step by step how to do the exercises and they are not complicated either. There is a section at the back of the book that goes into more detail about Superfoods, I found this section helpful as it also explains what foods we should eat to help with energy, digestion, bloating and a few more. A well informed handy book.
